EE-T1 Osorio

[Aaron Jefick]

Hello everyone in the forum, as I had mentioned in one of my previous projects I was very interested in modern tanks. especially the rare and unusual. in this project I face the EE-T1 Osório was a Brazilian prototype of a tank. was developed as a private venture funded by Engesa signature. which was not supported by the Brazilian government and the tank was not seen in action by the Brazilian Army except for a few demonstration units.

Currently there are only 2 variants found in the 2nd Regiment tanks, which are in operating condition, the variant that I build after checking a lot of information and do not want to do another version desert corresponds to the EE-T1 Osorio:



For this project use the Trumpeter model. unique in the market for this model and which is used for further processing, which by the way, in the hull are many.

I started by the ventilation system as this model represents the prototype tests Arabia, and is different to the real model:





Also I have to repair the sides that are smooth and angled as presented by the model:



I eventually leads to repair the front fenders:



And change all the rear:



It is good work this weekend, I hope to finish by year's end, greetings and thanks for watching.

[Aaron Jefick]

Good day guys.

My work also delay me much I had to make corrections to verify the model reference photos; I returned to build the rear; I had to remove the round grille exhaust that this version does not carry it and I am so:



the grille is placed in a place where I believed for a moment that was 2 gates so I had to shut down again and put the exhaust grille:



If you look at the picture you can clearly see that the grid leak is on the right side of the tank.



This is the work I have done, and you put the handles and all nuts on this side





Well is little progress but much work I have done as I have hope you like the model, greetings. Thanks for watch.

Good day mates, thanks for the comments, a preview of what I've done.









Here is a picture of the set:



The holes you see are sealed with cyanoacrylate which is transparent but are sealed, thanks for the comments and suggestions, greetings from Mexico.

That's some excellent plasticard work you've got going on here, very detailed and precise. I love it!

 

[Junkie]

Yes, this is fantastic work. Thanks for sharing it.

 

[Aaron Jefick]

Well I started masking the entire surface to not take the slip in the turret.




Paint two light coats with Rust Oleum, if you look you will find that the result is translucent, which leaves adequate area:



without the masks you can see the result:



As the paint dried, pass to fix the sideskirts so that they look like the real model, moving panels and rivets remaking.





The result of the skirts.



After a little work with the crew hatches:




Work sheath 105 mm cannon which is the leading version, this entanglement for some blue tape and put your settings with styrene No. .020





















It is the work I have done but still missing is near the end of this model. Greetings from Mexico
